Products formed from 2-methylallyl alcohol and rhodium trichloride trihydrate. Determination of the structure of [RhCl2(C8H15O)(4-methylpyridine)2]2 by X-ray crystallography
Abstract
Rhodium trichloride trihydrate and 2-methyl-allyl alcohol react to give [RhCl2(C8H15O2)]n which with 4-methylpyridine gives [RhCl2(C8H15O2)(4-methylpyridine)2]2, the structure of which has been determined by X-ray diffraction.
